About the Item

Title: Mid-20th Century Pastel of Riverside Buildings and Arched Stone Bridge by Anne Marie Migette Perard (French 1902-1977) Medium: Pastel on unframed paper Size: 10.5 inches (height) x 14.5 inches (width) Condition: As is normal with unframed works on paper there are some minor old creases or paper edge curls/ tears - all of which should be covered over or smoothed out once framed; generally very good and sound. Provenance: as with all the works we have by this artist, it has come from the artists estate in France. Description: With confident colour blocking and softened lines, this elegant pastel by Anne Marie Migette Perard depicts a row of weathered buildings lining a sunlit riverbank, their warm pink and ochre façades mirrored in the shimmering water below. A graceful stone bridge arches across the river, its double arch casting dramatic shadows, leading to a more distant villa and tree-lined backdrop. Though the precise location is not noted, the terracotta roofs and faded plaster walls strongly suggest southern France, Italy, or Spain, where medieval towns often cling to the edges of winding rivers. Perard captures the timeless character of these towns through simplified forms and an expressive palette—muted salmon pinks, rich browns, and glistening teals—creating a deeply nostalgic atmosphere. There’s a quiet rhythm in the verticals of the buildings and the gentle curve of the river, enhanced by the soft diffusion of pastel. This piece invites viewers into a moment of stillness: no boats, no people, just the interplay of light, water, and stone under an expansive blue sky. Perfect for collectors drawn to architectural landscapes or European travel-inspired works. A lyrical and painterly example of mid-century pastel technique with a strong sense of place.
